Yang Ming Adds Scrubber Equipped Newbuild
Wednesday September 28, 2022
Taiwan's Yang Ming has added the scrubber-equipped newbuild box ship YM Trillion to its fleet.
The move follows the delivery of the vessel on September 21 to Japanese non-operating owner Shoei Kisen, Alphaliner said in its latest weekly report.
Yang Ming will operate the 11,860 TEU capacity vessel under a long-term time charter.
At a time when media headlines are dominated by developments in the alternative bunker fuels space, the arrival of YM Trillion is a reminder that operators will be using conventional oil-powered ships and exhaust gas cleaning systems (EGCS) for many years to come.
Yang Ming is the world's ninth largest carrier by capacity with a 2.7% share of total global capacity, according to Alphaliner
